How to write a CGI for the Apache Web server in C

The Com/PC Embedded Gateway Linux (EGL/2) operating system comes with a pre-installed Apache Web server. Please see also mHT-CPC1L-07.pdf: How to use the Apache Web server for more information. This server supports also CGI (Common Gateway Interface). 1. Step: Download the file cgi-demo.c from the Com/PC website at www.ssv-comm.de. This file is the C source code for a simple CGI sample. 2. Step: Run your SSV coLinux environment on your development PC. Translate cgi-demo.c to an executable. Use the following command line gcc o cgi-demo cgi.demo.c within the SSV coLinux environment. This command line runs the GNU C compiler and creates the executable cgi-demo.
3. Step: Transfer the executable cgi-demo from the coLinux directory to the Windows directory /windows/transfer. Then run a TFTP server within the Windows environment.
SSV EMBEDDED SYSTEMS 2007, mHT-CPC1L-010.doc, Rev. 1.00.
4. Step: Run a Telnet or SSH session. Then execute the following commands: cd /rwnv/opt/lampp/cgi-bin tftp binary connect 192.168.0.2 get cgi-demo quit chmod +x cgi-demo
Please note: This sample assumes that your development PC with Windows and coLinux is using the IP address 192.168.0.2. Change this address if necessary. 5. Step: Access the executable cgi-demo with your Web browser. The URL for this CGI on the Com/PC is: http://192.168.0.126/cgi-bin/cgi-demo
This URL assumes that your Com/PC is using the IP address 192.168.0.126. Change this address if necessary.
The cgi-demo.c source code:
